Senate Republicans have devised a strategy to counter attacks they lack a health care plan and spin whatever the Supreme Court decides on President Barack Obama’s health care law as a victory for their party.

In a series of talking points obtained by POLITICO, Republicans lay out four possible rulings and detail how their party should respond in each of those cases. Sensitive to Democratic criticisms that they lack a plan to call their own, they will make the case that they won’t enact a 2,700 page law and will instead replace it “step-by-step” piecemeal reforms.

“Republicans will not repeat Democrats’ mistakes,” the document says. “We won’t rush to pass a massive bill the American people don’t support.”

The document sheds light on a secretive level of planning at the highest rungs of Senate Republican leadership and between the 47-member Senate GOP Conference, in an attempt to create an echo chamber aimed at shaping public opinion immediately after the court issues its ruling on Thursday. The talking points appear to mirror the arguments that will be made by House Speaker John Boehner and Mitt Romney, officials say. And they rehash long-standing ideas and rhetoric that has regularly been espoused by the GOP on health care.

By deciding against offering a detailed legislative proposal, Republicans can avoid making the difficult tradeoffs required in developing a major health care plan. Instead, they can rely on a series of well-worn talking points aimed at uniting their party and taking what they believe are their best arguments to voters this fall.

According to the internal documents, Republicans are prepared for four possible scenarios.

If the law that the GOP calls “Obamacare” is upheld, Republicans will step up their calls to repeal the entire law and make the claim that the law is “making things worse” and hurting small businesses.

If the entire law is struck down, they will argue that the ruling will underscore the need for new leadership in the White House since it “clears the way” to enact “step- by-step” reforms to “protect Americans’ access to the care they need, form the doctor they choose, at a lower cost.”

If the individual mandate is struck down, Republicans will point to comments made by Democratic Sens. Max Baucus, Jeff Bingaman and Al Franken and House Minority Whip Steny Hoyer questioning whether the law would work without it. And they will make the same point if the court rejects the mandate along with a series of health insurance reforms, including ones that are popular, such as the prohibition against those with pre-existing conditions.

Republicans will then try to highlight a series of health care ideas that have long been popular with their party as their preferred alternative, including by allowing small businesses “to pool resources to purchase health insurance” for employees, opening the door for health insurance to be purchased across state lines, targeting malpractice lawsuits against doctors, expanding health savings accounts and giving state governments unspecified “incentives” to lower costs.

In an attempt to rebut criticism that they would leave those with pre-existing conditions behind, the GOP will argue that the party would help those patients by giving them access to “affordable coverage by strengthening existing high-risk pools,” the document says.
